Carmel Valley Students Work on Nature Projects

Students from several area schools including Canyon Crest Academy, Torrey Pines High School, Carmel Valley Middle School, and Pacific Trails Middle School recently teamed up with staff from the San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy (SDRVC) and the San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy to work on lagoon habitat restoration projects. Joe DeWolf, a professional biologist who works in the San Dieguito River Park, educated the students about the ecology, ecosystem, and conversation of the lagoon as they removed weeds, widened trail paths, and gathered seeds from local plants. The students who participated were Christopher Yang, Stephen Yang, Mike Bai, Jeffrey Guo, Nathan Guo, Anthony Jiang, Claire Jiang, Eric Li, Raymond Li, Andrew Peng, Ethan Tran, Timothy Tran, Michael Wang, Richard Wu, Lynne Xu, Amanda Zhang, Andrew Zhang, Ashley Zhang, Patrick Zhang, Zoe Zhang, and Samantha Zhu.
